About Toggl Track
Toggl Track gives teams frictionless time tracking and custom profitability reports built from the timesheets people actually fill in. One-click timers run on web, desktop, mobile, and browser extensions, while automated background tracking captures activity so nothing slips through — without the screenshots or camera monitoring that define surveillance-era time tools.
Tracked time feeds directly into custom reports for billing, utilization, workload, and project profitability, with approval workflows that turn timesheets into invoices. 100+ integrations pull project data from Jira, Salesforce, Asana, and other systems, and a calendar view lets employees convert meetings into time entries in a single click.
Key benefits:
- One-click timers across web, desktop, mobile, and browser extensions
- Automated tracking captures activity quietly in the background
- Custom reports on profitability, utilization, and workload
- Timesheet approvals route hours to managers before billing
- 100+ integrations sync Jira, Salesforce, Asana, and calendars
- Anti-surveillance policy bans screenshots and camera monitoring
Headquartered in Tallinn, Estonia, Toggl Track operates under EU data-protection law with ISO 27001 certification, SOC 2 Type I compliance, and a guaranteed 99.99% uptime SLA. Estonian hosting and ownership keep time and project data fully within European jurisdiction, making it a sovereign alternative to US-based time-tracking and workforce-analytics vendors.
Trusted by agencies, consultancies, and remote teams including Talk Shop Media, Netconomy, and Xmartlabs, with Netconomy reporting 100% adoption across 500+ employees.
Why choose Toggl Track over Clockify?
The decisive argument is data jurisdiction. Clockify is headquartered in US, which means personal data processed through it can be subject to non-EU legal regimes — the US CLOUD Act, FISA 702, or similar laws depending on the provider. After the 2020 Schrems II ruling, EU organisations must carry out a transfer impact assessment for every such data flow.
Toggl Track removes that overhead. As a Estonia-based provider, it operates natively under GDPR, and data stays inside the EU/EEA by default. For regulated sectors — health, public administration, finance — that's not a nice-to-have but a requirement. For everyone else, it's concentration-risk insurance: you avoid depending on a single non-EU jurisdiction that can change the rules without warning.
